Plain white skis?

werd. · 2013-07-23 17:19:55

Armada just instagrammed this: http://gyazo.com/42cc0c814e0c648586369241c7ef9d2b Personally I think having a plain white pair of skis would be pretty sick.. i know they're just prototypes but if Armada came out with a new ski that were just plain white I'd probably buy them, they should make this and only sell them for one year. Just a random thought

I had some line 1260's way back in the day that were solid white. I crashed doing a 7, and my ski popped off, the brake got stuck, and proceeded to haul ass down the mountain. It took me 3 hours to find it in the powder.

id want all blacks if anything, and i rode the tbar with torin at momentum (not trying to claim) and those are the skis on instagram, and i think they are just custom ones he wanted so he could do the graphics with sharpie,

The skis are plain white because they are testing them for next season. They have not yet created the graphics and or do not want to release next years graphics until SIA next season.

This is very standard with every ski brand.

If you really want to you could make skis yourself, spend a crazy amount for a company to make one example for you or just get some sandpaper and spraypaint,

my k2 presses are pretty much all white. I could color them in and they'd probably look pretty cool

"no new friends" is one of the weirder things i can think of to write..

anyway yeah, ive always thought solid white prototypes consistently look better than a lot of skis' real graphics. all black would be amazing

A lot of you guys are wanting an all black pair of skis, check out the Faction Candide 1.0 from 2012/13.

Ridiculous

Not contributing to the thread but..
Saw a guy with plain orange (like really bright orange) skis this winter.
Always wonder'd if those were prototypes or if they exist.

Any plain bright orange skis?
